When are more people gonna do full game runs? It'd be great to have some competition there.

I'm planning on making a global record, but the problem is that my sound recording is awful. Fraps doesn't seem to record the system sound properly, which makes the sound very choppy in the end. And I'm afraid that a long speedrun like this one without sound will turn out to be pretty boring to watch.

EDIT: I can't fix the sound problem. Guess I'll have to do a very, very fast run to keep the boredom away.

cPanel keeps setting up records.srb2.org as a redirect to inu.srb2.org for some dumb reason. I don't know why it insists on doing this, since it's obviously wrong, but I've gotten Logan's/Alam's attention so they can fix it again.

I have a little question about the global records. Sorry for my ignorance, but how do I add this to the screen? Every global SRB2 run that I've watched has this kind of time and level markers. Is it added manually, or is there an specific application that I must use?

That's an external timer laid over in video editing. Pick any one from the Timers section on this page. (The one I used in that video is WSplit, but the other global records posted used LiveSplit.)

If you want to record it live over the footage, you'll need a recording program that supports that. I used Open Broadcaster Software set to record-only mode in my video, but that requires a lot of processing power to work even passably. If you need to, you can run the timer without recording it and then either rerecord the timing later to layer over the video in editing or... just omit it. It doesn't have to show up on the video. (That said, if you use a split timer but don't add it to the video, it may be a good idea to screenshot your final splits and link to that in the video description?)

I have a Lua script that automatically times the game from start to finish without counting loading times... but that'd be modifying the game, which isn't cool for time attacks. I'd like to look into having a formal "all levels" record attack mode in the game later on...

I want to post a speed-run for Knuckles game complete, but I want a screen recording program that's easy on the computer (I don't have the best PC in the world) so that my game itself doesn't lag way too much and ruin my run. I also have Llanfair to aid in timing that I also want to record. If I can't, that's okay. I just want to get at least a recording.

I can recomand OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) for recording the footage and the timer at the same time. It is easy to understand and once you got the hang on that recorder it will be probably the most amazing recorder for you. I would like to give you a tutorial how to set it up but I currently can't because I'm not at home now and also im writing this from a netbook wich is super weak and can't even multitask. But otherwise there are also other tutorial videos on the Internet.
